If you’re extending BP_Component (which is since 1.5 but I don’t want to backpat further for, a year is long enough), it’s very easy to add new […]

Problem is, that makes previous integrations I’ve made […]

So I guess that means that BP isn’t integrating group forums with the add-on yet, is this the direction BP is heading?

yipee, one less thing to fix 🙂

also, great look and improvement guys, love the way BP has grown and improved so much since the early beta days

I don’t have a calendar view atm, but the code is there already, its a case of adding the right options etc to get it showing instead of an events list.

You can now create/edit events, manage bookings, and create group events.

This is still a release candidate for EM 4.0 but it’s stable – http://wp-events-plugin.com/try-the-beta/

Looking forward to some feedback!

I think that’s a bit harsh on your part… given I’m pretty proactive about replying to suggestions.

Also, we’ve got a templating system so if it bugs you that much, you can mould it to show whatever you want.
